The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  • hdf5: stack-based buffer overflow in the function H5FD_sec2_read in H5FDsec2.c (CVE-2018-13876)

  • A NULL pointer dereference was discovered in H5S_hyper_make_spans in H5Shyper.c in the HDF HDF5 1.10.2 library. It could allow a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-11202)

  • A division by zero was discovered in H5D__btree_decode_key in H5Dbtree.c in the HDF HDF5 1.10.2 library.
    It could allow a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-11203)

  • A NULL pointer dereference was discovered in H5O__chunk_deserialize in H5Ocache.c in the HDF HDF5 1.10.2 library. It could allow a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-11204)

  • A out of bounds read was discovered in H5VM_memcpyvv in H5VM.c in the HDF HDF5 1.10.2 library. It could allow a remote denial of service or information disclosure attack. (CVE-2018-11205)

  • An out of bounds read was discovered in H5O_fill_new_decode and H5O_fill_old_decode in H5Ofill.c in the HDF HDF5 1.10.2 library. It could allow a remote denial of service or information disclosure attack.
    (CVE-2018-11206)

  • A division by zero was discovered in H5D__chunk_init in H5Dchunk.c in the HDF HDF5 1.10.2 library. It could allow a remote denial of service attack. (CVE-2018-11207)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a stack-based buffer over-read in the function H5F_addr_decode_len in H5Fint.c. (CVE-2018-13866)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is an out of bounds read in the function H5F__accum_read in H5Faccum.c. (CVE-2018-13867)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function H5O_fill_old_decode in H5Ofill.c. (CVE-2018-13868)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a memcpy parameter overlap in the function H5O_link_decode in H5Olink.c. (CVE-2018-13869)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a heap-based buffer overflow in the function H5G_ent_decode in H5Gent.c. (CVE-2018-13872)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a buffer over-read in H5O_chunk_deserialize in H5Ocache.c. (CVE-2018-13873)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a stack-based buffer overflow in the function H5FD_sec2_read in H5FDsec2.c, related to HDmemset. (CVE-2018-13874)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is an out-of-bounds read in the function H5VM_memcpyvv in H5VM.c. (CVE-2018-13875)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function H5T_copy in H5T.c. (CVE-2018-14031)

  • Rejected reason: DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER. ConsultIDs: CVE-2018-11206. Reason: This candidate is a reservation duplicate of CVE-2018-11206. Notes: All CVE users should reference CVE-2018-11206 instead of this candidate. All references and descriptions in this candidate have been removed to prevent accidental usage (CVE-2018-14032)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function H5O_layout_decode in H5Olayout.c, related to HDmemcpy. (CVE-2018-14033)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is an out of bounds read in the function H5O_pline_reset in H5Opline.c. (CVE-2018-14034)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function H5VM_memcpyvv in H5VM.c. (CVE-2018-14035)

  • An issue was discovered in the HDF HDF5 1.8.20 library. There is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function H5O_sdspace_decode in H5Osdspace.c. (CVE-2018-14460)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager’s report that the package is installed.
